I am running AutoCAD LT 2009 and have been inserting tables at the front of a number of drawings. At the moment we produce our drawings (wiring diagrams for control panels) by creating a layout for each page in the drawing and assigning a layer to each layout with that page number as a layer name (i.e. Layout Name: Page 32, Layer Name: PAGE32, so in Page 32 the active layer in the viewport is only PAGE32). When I insert a table on say Page 03 and its layer PAGE03 it should only be visible when Page 03 is active however when you go to any other page the table isn't visible but when you click somewhere on the page where the table is on it's page it activates the table and you can see the cell you have clicked on meaning you can't select anything on the page you want to because it keeps highlighting the table on the other page.
At the moment my only get around is by freezing the tables layer in all viewports so it doesn't highlight but this (considering there may be around ten pages with tables) is a bit of a pain and every so often you end up publishing and printing the drawing only to discover you forgot to turn those layers back on.
I'm not sure if it's my settings or just an AutoCAD problem. Any help you can give me would be much appreciated. Thanks
